The exchange program that stays in the U.S.

Here’s a lovely idea: the American Exchange Project helps recent high school graduates explore communities elsewhere in the U.S. that feel worlds apart from home. Students spend a week living in an unfamiliar place, then host their exchange partners in their own town.

From a small town in Washington to the Bronx, these exchanges show how much we can learn by getting to know lives different from our own.
